Its so strange. The week after my “I hate dating thread” I met someone, Someone nice and normal. Someone who is not trying to throw me on the floor and have his wicky way with me.(This is a good thing) It occurred to me after we went on our 7th and 8th date that I have fallen into “like”.

Now I never thought I would be in like again much love or anything else. I just really like being around him. He’s so funny and alot like me. He doesn’t think my antics are scary. And he likes me. While I am still fat. I find this amazing. Not the men can’t like fat chicks. I think there are plenty of men out there that love fat chicks. Just not this fat chick. He told me it was more to love. Well Hot Snickers on a Stick! He should have met me a year ago, there was a whole 130 something lbs more of me to love!

I don’t know if I will ever fall in love with him, or with anyone ever again, But this like thing isn’t too shabby. 😃

Whilst being in like I have noticed that I am alot more chipper, and alot more bounce in my step. Didn’t realise I was in that much of a funk before, well aside of the whole crying at commercials, movies, pictures, animals, or anything that was breathing. My friends say I am positively glowing. Now all I have to do is figure out how to feel this good any day of the week instead of when I am with somebody 😃

Congrats!

I am madly in like with two wonderful guys . . . None of this is _ever_ going to lead to love or sex or marriage or any of that claptrap, but it _is_ nice to have a fellow to like.

Like is good. I’ve fallen in like with a pretty cute Goth guy. Things seem to be progressing that this might be a little more long term than my usual likes but we’ll see.
